Hi ALL:

I've got a website up for my family, and like many family sites, it's gots a
bunch of pics. What can I say? I've got cute kids and a wife with some
photographic skills!

Now the thing is this. Mom lives in CT and wants to order some of the pics
off the site. I COULD post them up at shutterfly, yahoo photos, walmart
photos, or any number of places... But then what's the point in spending all
my time on site layout?

Is there a webservice out there that will allow me to change my photo pages so
there's a radio button near each one. Then, at the bottom a submit button.[color=darkred]
puts in her Credit Card info, address and she's good to go!

I contacted Shutterfly about the idea and their customer support didn't
understand what I was asking them to do.
Hey you guys are the experts! Someone out there do this and you're going to
at least make money off of my Mom!

It's kind of an odd post for this forum... I know.... But I'm going to need
help with building the form--as soon as I find a site to send it to.

Many of the online photo sites actually outsource their photos to separate
photo printing companies. These companies may have an API you can use.

That said, Flickr is really designed for this and works great. I'd suggest
uploading your images to flicker, then using something like slideshowpro.net
which interfaces with flickr for your site. Or, just put the flickr
photostream on your site (which I think uyou can do). Or, just link to your
flickr photos directly in your own custom site layout.
